editorial UnionLeader.com PC'd to death: The Army must give answers Did 13 American soldiers die at Fort Hood because officers were afraid of appearing insensitive to Muslims? In 2001, the alleged shooter, Nidal Hasan, apparently attended a Virginia mosque led by a radical cleric -- the same mosque attended by two of the 9/11 hijackers. He openly opposed the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan because the United States was fighting Muslims. A doctor who studied with Hasan recalled him justifying suicide bombings and accusing the United States of waging war against Islam. "His fellow students complained to the faculty about Hasan's 'anti-American propaganda,' but said a fear of appearing discriminatory against a Muslim student kept officers from filing a formal written complaint," The Associated Press reported over the weekend. U.S. intelligence officials knew that Hasan had tried to contact al-Qaida, ABC News reported on Monday. Patriotic Muslims have given and continue to give valuable service to this country. That is not the question the Fort Hood shooting raises. The question is whether kowtowing to political correctness prevented the Army from expelling a known enemy within its ranks. At the moment, that appears to be the case.
